Steve, I usually agree with you 100%, but this is a misleading post. So buying the budget version of a product, then saying it isnt as good as the top of the line product is Digi's fault? I am by NO means a super Digi supporter. They are almost as draconian and annoying in their policies as Waves (which is the worst I have ever experienced on EARTH). BUT: my Protools rig is not the "home" version, it is the HD3 rig, and i have a TON of processing, and no latency, and what latency there is when using a converter for a H/W insert is totally and automatically correctable.
To just say "getting away from digi" is a great thing, you have to qualify that.
How about "when you do research and figure out what DAW has the best feature set IN MY PRICE RANGE, things get real nice." This seems to be the crux of most conversations about this topic.
Steve this is now not directed at you, as I just thought of it while typing about your true, but misleading [to the less seasoned of us around here] post IMHO...
Am I crazy for thinking that there is a way to make all this stuff work without just blaming the manufacturers like they are the mean high school prinicpal's setting arbitrary power trip based rules to punish the kids?
